Did you know that thousands of people die from ? smoking every year in Britain? I don’t want you to be one of them. 1 2 When Mum asks you to smoke outside, you think she’s just being difficult. Well, I don’t think she is. Not many people like the smell of smoke in their house or on their clothes, and Mum doesn’t like it either. What’s more, doctors have found that more and more people who don’t smoke are falling ill. It’s caused by secondary smoking, which could make Mum and me ill too.
